Walking the Labyrinth
In this labyrinth, there are no false turns or dead ends. You walk the line around the outside, then follow it to the middle. Assume unit distance between lines and ends of turns except for that horizontal entry line. That seems to be half a unit apart from the other lines.
What are some different ways to measure the distance walked? How might we go about that?
